Jon Stewart pointed out the right-wing's fake cancel culture and pointed out that the real source of cancel culture is Donald Trump.

Stewart said on The Daily Show: “Ironically, it turns out that cancel culture was done by those who smelled it. There are people who cancel people on their right, but the only person who cancels people on their right is Donald Trump. And anyone who dares disagree with him will refuse to accept Trump's claims of a stolen election, and you will lose your job like Liz Cheney and countless others. In fact, everything the right wing says about cancel culture is actually being done by MAGA.”
After replaying numerous examples of Trump cancel culture, Jon Stewart said, “In fact, Trump is a true cancel culture with an emphasis on ‘cult.’ Because on the right you can say anything. [bleep] From TikTok to Patreon, we want you to be gay and trans. You can denounce DEI on anything from a podcast to the Florida governor's office, and chances are, not only will you be okay, but you'll also get a raise. But if you could dare say one thing about Donald Trump, what would it be? Yes, be afraid!”

Jon Stewart was right. The real cancel culture is Donald Trump. The cult within the Republican Party will cancel anyone who dares speak out. An example of this is the daily march to the Manhattan courthouse where Republicans stand hostage behind their beloved leader, holding papers and ranting incoherently.
We all know what would happen if one of these Republicans came to court, heard the trial, and then went out and told reporters that he thought the former president was guilty. That man's Republican career would be immediately over.
Donald Trump will cancel it, and that's how the former president keeps his stranglehold on one of America's two major political parties.
Trump has a cancel culture and will cancel anyone who dares speak out against him.
